Chapter 454 Traitor Temple



"Here...what just happened?"

At the foot of the Holy Mountain, Annuo saw the corpses of dwarves lying on the ground and his face changed drastically.

After instructing Sasir to be alert to the surroundings, Annuo began to check the bodies.

Among a pile of dead bodies, Annuo found a dwarf soldier who had been cut in half, but his health had not yet returned to zero.

Next to the latter is a magic-gathering cylinder that has been cut in half.

When the dwarf soldier saw Anno coming over, his cloudy eyes suddenly became clear again.

"Temple...traitor...Lucius...killed! Traitor...Temple..."

Anno only heard a few words before the dwarf soldier who was cut in half had his health reduced to zero, and he stared with his eyes wide open in silence.

Dwarves and monsters are different. Anno cannot absorb their souls for sacrifice.

"Lucius was killed?"

An Nuo looked incredulous.

He looked around and found a headless corpse wearing equipment that looked familiar.

This should be Lucius' body, except that the head is missing.

Anno and Lucius just met two minutes ago.

After the signal flare was raised on the Holy Mountain, Lucius arrived a little faster.

But An Nuo didn't expect that a seventh-level strongman would die in such a short time.

The only way to achieve this is to be ambushed by another seventh-level strongman.

This also proves that the information An Nuo just heard was not wrong.

"Temple, I have an impression of this dwarf."

Anno recalled that when he first discovered the feather demon Theodore, Owen rushed to the scene with several high-level dwarves.

Among them was Temple.

At this time, Annuo did not know that Temple's duty was to be responsible for the defense of Sagunto, otherwise he would have been able to infer more information.

Anno stood up from the half-body of the dwarf and prepared to tell Lord Owen this information.

A high-level traitor and spy would be too great a threat to Sagunto.

However, just as Annuo was about to leave, a white shadow approached quickly.

"Anno?"

Seeing Anno among a group of dwarf soldiers, Camilla's eyes were full of confusion.

She didn't doubt that An Nuo killed these soldiers.

Instead, they were wondering what kind of enemy this team of dwarf soldiers encountered, and why the entire team was killed.

Judging from the equipment, this team of dwarves has several sixth-level captains.

When An Nuo saw Camilla, he immediately looked at her with a vigilant look.

The other party is also a Strider, and he might be related to the unrest in Sagunto tonight.

But on second thought, Camilla is the God of Priests, and the possibility of her colluding with the demons is very small.

"There are indeed quite a few monsters hiding in the city."

Camilla did not notice the change in Annuo's eyes, but told Annuo about her situation with a serious face.

“I found a hidden base of demons in the outer area. They slaughtered many dwarves for blood sacrifice.

Although I interrupted the blood sacrifice, there are probably still demons hiding in the city preparing for the blood sacrifice."

"Blood sacrifice!"

Although Camilla didn't elaborate, Annuo could already imagine the scene of dismembered bodies.

"There is a big problem in Saguntor. There are traitors among the high-ranking dwarves."

An Nuo also told Camilla the information he had obtained, and then said, "We need to tell Lord Owen about this news."

"Traitor! If there is a traitor among the dwarves, it can explain why so many demons have sneaked into the city."

With the help from both inside and outside, it is not impossible for a group of level six monsters to sneak into Sagunto silently.

Annuo and Camilla simply ignored the flares rising around them and headed straight for the City Lord's Mansion.

At this moment on the holy mountain, Temple was holding the pointer disc in his hand, quickly approaching the specific location of the seal.

Following the guidance of the pointer, Temple soon discovered that the seal was not on the surface of the holy mountain, but inside the mountain.

"If we destroy the mountain, the noise will be too loud and we will definitely be discovered."

Once discovered, Temple would definitely be besieged by the high-level officials who rushed over.

Even so, Temple did not hesitate to concentrate magic power on the axe, preparing to use the seventh-level combat skills to split the holy mountain.

But just as he was about to take action, a creepy voice suddenly came from behind him.

"What do you want to do?"

Temple looked back and saw a strange figure that had long been engraved in his mind.

"How could it be... God Hunter!"

"Anno, is there something wrong?"

When they were still some distance away from the City Lord's Mansion, Annuo and his group were discovered by Mandel.

"Lord Mandel, do you know Temple?"

Anno did not suspect that Mandel was also a traitor.

After all, when the two of them were following Finn before, Mandel did not attack Anno.

If it was an enemy, Mandel would have attacked Annuo by then.

"Temple, what do you want from him?" Mandel asked in confusion.

"Lord Lucius is dead. I learned from the dying dwarf soldier that it was Temple who did it!"

"What?"

Mandel was stunned.

But then he remembered that a few minutes ago, Temple, who was in charge of guarding the City Lord's Mansion area, suddenly said that he wanted to go and see what happened in the direction of the magic-gathering cylinder.

Mandel didn't think much about it.

"Temple just went to the direction of the Holy Mountain."

"really!"

Anno and Camilla looked at each other, then said to Lord Mandel, "We want to see Lord Owen."

“Follow me!”

Mandel also understood that things were now beginning to develop in an uncontrollable direction.

After meeting Lord Owen in the conference hall, Anno told him about Temple's betrayal, and Amira told him about the blood sacrifice array in the city.

"Temp was in charge of Sagunto's defense. If he was the one who rebelled, then many unreasonable things would become reasonable!"

City Lord Owen lowered his head, his face so gloomy that it seemed as if water was about to drip out.

He sent his personal guards to tell other high-ranking generals in the city that Temple was a traitor, and then said to Anno: "Anno, do you know where Temple is now?"

Anno shook his head.

When he arrived at the foot of the holy mountain, he saw only the corpses of dwarves on the ground.

After hearing this, Owen lowered his head and thought for a while.

Since Temple is a traitor, his exposure of his identity at this time may mean that his goal has been achieved.

The purpose of these demons is obviously to seal Sagunto.

In fact, not long after the Feather Demon Clan was exposed, a dwarf god hunter found Owen and told him that there was a very terrifying magical fluctuation outside the city, which was suspected to be the Demon King.

The god hunter was about to leave the city to lure the devil away, and before leaving he notified Owen to pay attention to unusual movements in the city.

"At present, only two God Hunters know the exact location of the seal. Even I don't know where the seal is. If Temple really finds the seal, the other God Hunter who stayed in the city will also take action to deal with him. The problem now is the blood sacrifice in the city!"

When Owen thought of the blood sacrifice, he felt a strong sense of uneasiness.
